The Peasant Gourmet Chef - Chapter 18
For this day, Zhang Tieshan didn’t do hunting in the fields or in the mountains as usual but directly took Zhag Qingshan and his good brother Lou Er, who grew up in the same village, out of the village and went straight to Lijiazhuang.
When Zhang Qingshan heard that his brother are going to Lijiazhuang to settle accounts with the Li family, he was so happy and felt like walking in the wind. The feeling of exaltation is can be seen all over his body.
“Ge*, I thought you would forget about this. It turns out that you didn’t intend to let the Li family go. That’s great! That family bullied us so much, we should return it!”
(TN: * directly translated as brother)
Luo Er beside him was indignant and guilty, “The Li family is indeed too much. When you are away, that family bully your mother, brother, and son often. All the valuable things were also taken away and people are kicked out. I fought with them several times but there are so many people in the Li family. The two sons are also powerful. I am useless I couldn’t beat them or even win them in quarrel. Xiong di*, I’m sorry that I didn’t take good care of your family for you.”
(TN: * directly translated as bro, buddy, or man. Something that is used between close friends. – based on my understanding hehe)
How could Zhang Tieshan blame him? He knew that the villagers generally doesn’t help others with these house affairs. Most of them just watch the fun. Like when his mother, brother, and son were bullied at home, no villagers stood up for them, only Lou Er stepped in. When they were driven out and had nowhere to go, Luo Er also gave them his old old house to live in, which gave his mother and younger brother a place to live. He was very grateful for Luo Er’s help.
Knowing that he was going to settle accounts with the Li family this time, Luo Er also volunteered to help, afraid that they would not have enough manpower. This brother, he did not hesitate.
Zhang Tieshan patted Luo Er on the shoulder, “Xiao Er*, I never blame you. I am only grateful to you.”
(TN: * directly translated as Little two)
Luo Er smiled in relief, then asked curiously, “I thought you would settle the accounts with the Li family as soon as you came back. Why did you only go today?”
Zhang Tieshan pursed his lips and thought of Li Hehua who left yesterday. He said in a flat voice, “The Li family probably only learned about my return yesterday. It’s just right to come today.” Although he didn’t care about Li Hehua, he won’t just forget about the Li family. If they bullied his family and he ignored it, he won’t be considered as a man. The reason why he didn’t immediately go to them was because of the changes shown by Li Hehua before. If he wants to settle the accounts, it is natural to wait until Li Hehua is divorced and went home.”
Luo Er played with Zhang Tieshan and grew up with him. He knew him very well. Hearing his words, he immediately understood what he meant and didn’t ask any further questions.
The Li family’s face was hot but they are always been thick-skinned. Mother Li said,
Thick-skinned, Mother Li said: “Qingshan, we had a problem with our attitude before. Our family is all rude, we spoke and did wrong things, so we accidentally hurt you. I’m really sorry. We apologize to you. Please be kind and forgive us.” After speaking, she changed her words and continued, “However, my Old Li did save your father and this kindness cannot be forgotten.”
Zhang Qingshan was angered by Mother Li’s words. His face turned red with anger, “You, you…”
Zhang Tieshan raised his hand and patted Zhang Qingshan, signaling him not to get excited, then looked at the Li family lightly, “Don’t talk about that kindness anymore. Speaking of it, our family has already repaid, I don’t want to hear one more word in your mouth, otherwise…”
